Hi All.
Softype from Origin Instruments is not only an on screen keyboard but
has dwell click as well, ( an updated version of Dragger32 which is
still the best dwell click software I have seen so far).

Best regards,
Geoff.

Thanks Will,
Just spoke to Paul @ Smartbox and it appears the LC accesses the mac via
serial keys - i.e. using it as a very expensive keyboard! I suppose it
is an option, trouble is, my client wants to mostly do mousey things.
Would running a Mac VirtualMachine work?!
I guess I might end up just using a windows eye gaze system and making a
simplified interface for the things he wants to do. This is also all
conjecture as he is currently OK with the headmouse, but it may well be
that he may not be soon...
Cheers
Simon

The only one that is advertised to work is the LC Edge (see it at
http://www.eyegaze.com/ ) Oh and the ERICA but thanks to a certain
company that's no longer available.
Sent from my iPhone. Please excuse brevity and typing errors.

Just a bit of feedback: I loaned a head mouse for a client the
other day who was using a mac. The headmouse worked a treat (as it
should, as it is just a USB mouse, but you never quite know do you). I
panicked a bit when doing this as I thought - "what dwell click shall I
use". But, a quick google and download found a good solution:
http://dwellclick.com/
It seems to work very well/cleanly and provide the normal
adjustments (jitter and reset distances etc), just needs a couple of
tweaks to make it work well for a hands-free user, but these are
described in the manual.
Next challenge for this client, i'm fairly sure, will be eye
gaze for mac. Anyone done this?!!!!
Cheers
Simon
